Introduction to Agent Memory

Most AI agents forget everything when a conversation ends. This workshop's starting agent — a capable GraphRAG agent over a course knowledge graph — is no different: close it, reopen it, and it has no idea who you are or what you discussed.

In this module, you meet that agent, run straight into its lack of memory, and then run the same agent with memory — its context graph held in a shared instance with the whole room's.

By the end of this module, you will be able to:

• Name the three gaps of an agent without memory
• Demonstrate that, without memory, the agent forgets everything when it restarts
• Run the same agent with memory and have it recall you across restarts — and find you people worth meeting
